       "Starmer was speaking at the BAE Systems shipyard in Govan, Glasgow where his big announcement was warfare not welfare. Speaking to the BBC, Starmer insisted it was "right" to axe the universal Winter Fuel Payment for pensioners as he announced plans to build 12 new nuclear submarines, 6 new munitions factories, thousands more long-range weapons including missiles and drones, and... spend £15 billion on [a] nuclear warhead programme."‐ Paul Kavanagh via The National, 2/6/25.
